The DOJ and FBI's 92-page case that Army scientist Bruce Ivins carried out the 2001 anthrax letter attacks, released after his 2008 suicide closed the case without trial. It sets out the genetic evidence linking the spores to his flask. Later scientific reviews questioned parts of the science, which makes the original document essential reading.
